How to find out a field in debug?

[Former Member]

Hi all,

the value of a field is calculated during runtime. I want to use debug to find out how this the value is calculated.

Is there any easy to do it?

Thanks!

Hui

Creating a watchpoint on that field will help...

If you create watchpoint as field_value = blank/empty then program will stop executing everytime the value of that field is changed.... hope this will help..

Hi

If you know the value which would be taken by the field, then create a Watch point during Debug. Enter the field name and value and Execute. The cursor will stop at the point where the field takes the given value.

U can even put a break point where the calculation and assignment to that field is performed.

hi,

This way you can go.

First you find the places wherever that variable is used for assigning value bu just opening the program and press the FIND button on the stnd tool bar.

then just type this variable and choose main program radio button.

then you open another session for the same program ( the program should be active to set break point ) and goto the line numbers displayed in the first session find list and then press RED STOP button (ctrl shift F12 ) button on each line number you got from the first session.

then execute the program and you can swithc between these breakpoints using F8 key on the keyboard.

Hi,

You can keep a break point on the calculation part. And execute the program. Program will halt at the point. Double click on the variables and press f5. You can see the values at run time.

Thanks!

Now I know how to locate the field.

But now I have new question. when I debug a FORM, I find that the local variables are only initlized at the first time when it's called, that means the code in bold below is only executed once?

Anyone can explain it? Or am I wrong

Thanks!
